Wassamada you? I have my top down at least a couple of times nearly every month. It is amazing what living half of your adult life in Alaska will do for you. One big thing is that any temperature above freezing when it isn't actually precipitating on you starts to look like top-down weather (even if you do have the heater running full blast). -- John McGaw [Knoxville, TN, USA] http://johnmcgaw.com |

My wife convinced me that we'd need a hard top for our Miata because she didn't really want to hassle with the convertible during the long winters, but just a couple of days ago I realized the really bad part of a hard top. We had a brief foray into nice weather for a day and I'm sitting at work ready for a great drive home, but the hard top was on! Grrrr. It's time to take it off and just put the top up. -- Mark "nothing better than a black '97!" |

I told the boss to screw off and went for a LONG and spirited drive down Lime Creek Road and back. Chris D. knows what I'm talking about if he is still haunting this newsgroup. Tomorrow does not look good for work either, but I will have to pay for the gas eventually I guess....... Don't worry, both me and XS11E will be paying for this nice weather soon when every metal part of the car that we touch gives us third-degree burns. I think that some of my skin is still attached to the black metal voodoo shift knob from August of last summer..... ;-) Pat |

That is what appeals to me so much about the folding retractable hardtop for the NC, never needing to take it off of the car when the weather turns from bad to nice during the day. Also, never worrying about storing it, whether on the road or not. I just wish that it was somehow available for the NA and NB, but that wish will never come true. Pat |

I'll be sad to lose our 2002 because now it will take 12 seconds to drop or raise the roof instead of about 2 seconds which can be done whenever traffic stops. Can't wait for the aircon though. Our 2002 doesn't have it and when it is hot and wet it is really uncomfortable. At the risk of being really seriously flamed has anyone tried taking a coupé through a carwash? Our 2002 is silver which doesn't need washing too often but the coupé is dark (stormy in the UK) blue and with UK weather being really variable and the car being used every day it is going to take a lot of cleaning. |

Wassamada you? It was raining or threatening to do so for several weeks and my tonneau cover isn't very waterproof. It was also below 80F and we all know human life cannot exist below that temperature. |
